Abascal Taps Garriga to Lead VoxPP Talks in Valencia to Avert New Elections

Vox's secretary general heads to Valencia to pursue a policy-based pact before the investiture deadline.

Overview

  • Ignacio Garriga will travel to Valencia before Sunday to pilot in‑person negotiations, with Vox's national secretary‑general team fronting the talks with the Valencian PP.
  • Alberto Núñez Feijóo and Santiago Abascal have already opened a first channel of contact through a telephone call that initiated the process.
  • Vox has set conditions for its support that include maintaining budget agreements, rejecting the EU Green Deal, and tightening migration policy by refusing the redistribution of unaccompanied minors.
  • Feijóo urges an agreement to ensure stability after October's DANA, calling new elections irresponsible, while Abascal says Vox does not fear a fresh vote and will be more firm and demanding.
  • Valencia mayor María José Catalá rules herself out as successor as party attention turns to Juanfran Pérez Llorca, even as Vox signals it is negotiating policies rather than names.
